Our daughter is happy and confident again
We contacted Mina because our daughter was having strong emotional reactions and expressing fears that started to worry us. It was getting to a point where she was having panic attacks that were becoming more frequent. It was heart breaking seeing our usually happy and confident daughter being upset and anxious about going to school and even seeing her friends. In the short space of 3 months, Mina worked with her on managing her unhelpful thoughts and how to share her worries before they got too much. Her feedback was invaluable and the approaches we learnt in the parent session were very helpful. She is now going to school and seeing her friends with no issues, thank you Mina!

The positive impact on our daughter and family is immeasurable
Our daughter was having a challenging time with friendships at school as well as having anger issues at home. She is one of four children. Mina spent time with my wife and I to really understand the issues and how she could best help. After each online session with our daughter Mina would share a very comprehensive voice note with us explaining what was covered in the session and tips for us at home. A year on the positive impact on our daughter and us as a family is immeasurable. Friendships have blossomed for our daughter as she's entered secondary school and home life is significantly calmer (as much as it can be with 4 children). Over the past 2 months we have reduced the coaching session and Mina has focused on setting our daughter up for success in her new school. We're incredibly grateful to Mina and can't recommend her highly enough.

Mina's sessions are about who our child is and her place in the world
Our daughter has been doing sessions with Mina since a little less than a year and we have seen great improvement in her ability to recognise her own emotions, to talk about them and, when needed, to manage them. Conversations about how we feel, how people build and maintain relationships are now happening more often. Also, our child is very creative and the sessions with Mina have given her another layer of confidence in expressing her art and her personality in everything she does. What we really appreciate is that it is not about making a diagnosis or labelling, but about who she is and her place in the world. She feels very secure and in control of her sessions. Mina is a great support to her development.

Mina's sessions with my son had an immediate positive impact
My son needed help sharing how he feels, especially uncomfortable feelings. When he makes mistakes or bad choices, he tends to be really hard on himself. This involves bottling up his feelings so that they come to the surface later. Mina's sessions with my son had an immediate positive impact on him. He usually finds it difficult speaking to adults outside of the family but emerged from his first session extremely happy, with a skip in his step saying how much he had enjoyed his time with Mina. He then looked forward to subsequent sessions and has immensely benefited. He has opened up and is sharing his feelings much more.

Mina has a way with children

Our daughter was facing some low confidence and self-esteem issues due to friendship dynamics and bullying situation at school, I had never thought of therapy for an eight-year-old. I found Mina and since then our lives are changed. My daughter opened up to her right away and since then has evolved into a much more confident girl. Mina gave our entire family tools and tactics to help our daughter cope through these difficult times. As a first-time parent going through this, I particularly appreciated Mina keeping me updated on the sessions and progress she made. Her recap notes were detailed and taught me so much about my daughter as a person, additionally these recaps were critical for all of us to help her collectively. Mina also informed us as parents how best to discuss and help our daughter. Lastly, our daughter truly looked forward to her sessions with Mina as she is extremely warm, inviting, and approachable.

Mina gave my daughter the tools to thrive and it's been eye opening
In the next six to twelve years my daughter will experience various milestones: attending university, joining the workforce, meeting someone special. Through these life events she will experience challenges and triumphs. Her talents and hard work will play a role in her success. But what will allow her to thrive are the hidden skills, that Mina has been nurturing in her: growing my daughter's confidence, building her resilience, developing her emotional maturity and cultivating her sense of gratitude. My daughter has realised she has the ability and power within to change and help herself.

Mina has enabled our son regain his confidence and excel in school
My son needed help to regain his confidence at school. The new teacher demanded a lot and showed very little patience, tolerance and warmth. His confidence was smashed. After our initial consultation we decided to use Mina's services. We have never looked back. Her calm yet focused approach to working with my son has enabled him to not only regain his confidence but also perform at school. His progress reports as well the teachers positive direct feedback are proof that the sessions with Mina paid off.

The parent session really helped me feel more confident and calm
I have a son and he was showing some behaviours that were worrying me and my husband. He would get very angry and throw toys or objects. We sought out an expert like Mina as we would benefit from some guidance and support. Overall, he has been much better emotionally about school and managing his emotions at home. I'm so grateful to Mina. It's such a lovely feeling seeing him back to his normal self and enjoying school again. Her parent session and advice really helped me feel more confident and calm - thank you so much Mina!!!

Mina knows how to build children’s trust and make things fun
Mina did a wonderful job of working with my daughter through some trying times with friendships. She empowered her to navigate social challenges. Mina knows how to build children’s trust, as well as make things fun and engaging so that they will open up. Through interactive activities and perhaps even playful techniques, she skilfully draws out their thoughts and emotions without them feeling pressured.

My wife and I have learnt so much
Our daughter has noticeably changed and we as parents have learnt a lot. Not only about how to act and react, but also about her personality. You have shown that she is not just extrovert and confident, but also has a more uncertain side. which needs more time to think.
Thank you for the great sessions with our daughter and us, and all the insightful feedback.

Our daughter is telling us about her feelings much more
It's evident that these sessions have become a catalyst for significant positive changes in our daughter's emotional well-being. She is telling us about her feelings much more, listening and calming down much faster. Her emotion vocabulary is improving each day. We're genuinely grateful for Mina's dedication and expertise in nurturing our daughter's emotional intelligence. The positive changes we've observed speak volumes about Mina's impact and the safe, supportive environment she creates during these sessions. Thank you for this invaluable support system for our daughter's emotional growth and well-being.

I recommend Mina to all parents

I recommend Mina to all parents
Mina was recommended to us by a friend whose daughter she had helped. Our son was going through a rocky patch at school. From the outset, Mina provided our son with a safe space to explore his thoughts, navigate complex feelings, and understand the dynamics of his friendships. For us, as parents, it was a relief to have a professional like Mina guide us with practical strategies and approaches tailored to our son's needs. Her insights and suggestions provided us with a range of tools to support our child effectively. I recommend her to any parent who feels like they'd like some outside support to help their child thrive in the inevitable tricky patches of growing up.

Our daughter manages her feelings so much better
We engaged Mina's services to help our daughter who was extremely jealous of her younger brother and had fits of extreme anger. Through her and our sessions with Mina, we learnt to give our daughter more space and our daughter learnt to control her emotions better, helping all family relationships. Thank you Mina!

We are all getting along better

Mina's support transformed our son's emotional well-being
